Effects of heat treatment temperature and time on hardness and wear resistance of RE-Ni-W-P-SiC-PTFE and RE-Ni-W-P-SiC composite coatings were studied. The results indicated that the hardness of the composite coatings as-deposited was lower and the mass loss (i.e. rate of abrasion) was higher, while the hardness increased and the rate of abrasion decreased with the increase of heat treatment temperature. The rate of abrasion was the lowest and hardness was the highest at 400℃. The hardness decreased and the rate of abrasion increased with the temperature increasing continuously. Both the hardness and wear resistance also increased with the prolongation of heat treatment time, reaching their peak values when the heat treatment time was 2 h. The experimental results also showed that the hardness of the coatings decreased with PTFE quantity enhancing, but the wear rate diminished correspondingly. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that the structure of RE-Ni-W-P-SiC-PTFE composite coating as-deposited is amorphous, and it partly became crystal when heat treatment temperature was over 300℃.
